    Not many of us will get the chance to actually sail through this famous waterway. It was good sailing with you Chief.

    Youve teally gotta admire the bravery of Magellan and all the early explorers, doing that route in a tiny, round-bellied wooden ship, bobbing around like a cork with no idea where he was or what to expect. The man must've had balls of steel.

    Your use of language and the use of mariner lingo adds to your amazing story telling craft. You should be narrating for Discovery and National Geographic. Cheers to you and your crew for showing and reliving these voyages.

      Mighty ship making it's way through rough seas, "Safety First," no visible flexing of the sturdy ship. Those crane masts holding alignment.
      Hats of to the marine designers and shipbuilders.

    Amoust 20 years since I left the region and now I can see footage of the place where I grew up. I still remember the two times i had to cross the Estrecho de Magallanes and the weather make me realize I am not made to be a sailor. Thank you chief for make me remember good memories of the region.

      It takes a special breed of man to be a sailor. Either you're born to it, or you're not. And it takes wisdom to know which you are. 🌹⚓

      I was wondering if they gave you two pilots. I see now that they probably took shifts thru your passage. Cheers from Port Angeles where our pilots pick up traffic entering and leaving Puget Sound thru the Strait of Juan De Fuca.@@ChiefMAKOi

    As an argentinian ex maritime agent I just can say thank you. I've heard the stories, I've spent time with crew members that talked about the passage, and I've seen celphone videos with low quality. This is something I really wanted to see in some way or another.

    @Maadhawk 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Those rolling seas remind me of when I transited the Bearing Strait as part of the crew of the USS Salt Lake City (SSN-716) back in 2005. We were transiting submerged at 400 ft below the surface and I can't even begin to imagine how rough it was up there. We were rolling pretty wildly at a level that is usually unaffected by surface weather. Aside from the rolling of the boat though, it was an otherwise smooth transit.

  • @jdw6293

    I'm amazed that Magellan made it through with the twisty-ness of the passage, the unpredictable winds coming off the mountains, the unpredictable currents, and no idea what lay ahead!

  • @stephenhope7319
    @stephenhope7319 ปีที่แล้ว +25

    Awesome Chief. This time next year we have booked a cruise from Santiago to Buenos Aires and they only sail this time of year, Dec to Feb then the weather is too bad to sail. I cannot imagine how those sailors dealt with sailing 500 years ago with no maps or charts and limited navigational equipment. Good for us that they did, including Gerardus Mercator in 1569. who mapped the world in correct size. What a risk they took. What value they brought us all. Thanks Chief. I received a note from Princess for crossing the Arctic circle last August, oh boy. I went to North Cape... on a cruise ship.

    @jerryodell1168 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    During either 1962 or 1963 (can't remember which) when I was a sailor on the USS Canberra CAG-2, we got caught in a huge storm in the North Atlantic. The storm did massive damage to the ship. We were forced to limp into Rota, Spain for repairs before continuing into the Med for our tour of duty. There were times when trying to sleep, the ships lurch and roll threw us out of our bunks. In those days we had fold up bunks with chains on the outside. We learned to use one hand to grab the chains to hang on. My Wife said I would grab for the chains during the night many on many occasions in later life.

    Around the turn of the 19th to 20th century, my grandmother's family emigrated from Norway to Chile to start a lumbering business. Fortunately, the ship with the family transited the Strait. Unfortunately, the ship with all their stuff attempted the Horn and was lost. Thanks for a glimpse of what they witnessed!!!

    It seems several lifetimes ago, January 1984, summer down there, during my 22 year US Navy career, I passed through the Strait. Weather was about like yours was. I was on a gas turbine powered destroyer, our sonar loudly banging away every inch of the way, giving us a feeling of safety since, it seemed, everytime I went topside I'd see a ship wreck; a stern jutting towards the sky, missing props and rudder, masts pointing straight out of the water, a hull on its' side. I still miss being at sea. And, most people don't like rocking and rolling, but I do because I don't get sea sick. The down side to that is my compatriots and I had to continuing doing those things that must be done. Three days of near no sleep. I learned of your channel from What's Up WIth Shipping.

    Joshua Slocum's account of his travel through the straits in a small sailboat is one of the best parts of his great tale. As the title of his books says, he was the first person _Sailing Alone Around the World._

    • @PoulLausen
      @PoulLausen ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I think especially the section about how he passed Tierra del Fuego in The Strait of Magellan is very exciting and how he prevented natives from boarding his boat. It is one of the best books I have read on sailing and would recommend everyone to try and find a copy. (I believe there are some sections online, or maybe you can buy an electronic copy)

    • @stevetorres76

    Transited Strait of Magellan November 1979 on British Bulker "Dunster Grange" en route from Bahia Blanca, Argentina, to Kagoshima, Japan. I was Radio Officer. Beautiful scenery, glaciers, mountains. Ships Master took us through as pilotage was not compulsory then. This brings the memories back. Bon Voyage!

    The only time I go that far south was in 1978 when we rounded Cape Horn and it was as calm as a millpond, and I do chuckle a little when I hear tales of the Drakes Passage. Alas I never got to transit the Straits during my sea going career; so I enjoy watching videos.

    What a fantastic deviation in the otherwise routine life on board a cargo ship. I suppose the currents, fog and shifting winds can make that passage challenging.

    Transitting Magellan Strait is quite challenging due to high seas that you are going to encounter on the western side. Pilot will recommend to navigate thru inland passage to avoid heavy rolling... At least all the crew will receive a Certificate of Passage to Magellan Strait and It was a great experience....Safe Voyage!!!

    Chief, I learn something from every one of your videos. I was a hawse pipe chief engineer of an ocean going tug back in the 70's. I can sure see the value of a maritime academy education.

    Great commentary, chief. Now you can do it in a 3 masted sailing boat, no gps, radio beacon, pilots just the seat of your pants and all those guys in the rigging, changing sails. Great video, thanks, Chief.

    The early sailors had to contend with all of these difficulties whilst under sail and without the benefit of a map , an incredible accomplishment !

    It is impressive to keep in mind the dangers and challenges of shipping something like rice. People should not take this for granted.

    Thank you chief. This was my first look at the passage. When in the sea state at 8:00, is anyone allowed on deck?
